A sodium lamp emits light at the power P = 70.0 W and at the wavelength λ = 600 nm, and the emission is uniformly in all directi

ons.
(a) At what rate are photons emitted by the lamp?

(b) At what distance from the lamp will a totally absorbing screen absorb photons at the rate of 1.00 photon /cm2s?

(c) What is the rate per square meter at which photons are intercepted by a screen at a distance of 1.90 m from the lamp?

Answer:

a)  # = 21,116 10¹⁹ photons , b)  R = 4,099 10⁷ m , c)  I = 4.66 10¹⁸ photons / m²

Explanation:

a) In this problem we need to know the energy of each photon and the total emitted power

Let's start with the Planck equation

     E = h f

     c =λ f

     E = h c / λ

     E = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸/600 10⁻⁹

     E = 3,315 10⁻¹⁹ J

This is the energy of a photon

The definition of power is

       P = W / t

Work is equal to energy change

        P = E / t

       E = 70.0  1

       E_{total} = 70 J

This is the total energy emitted

Let's use a rule of proportions to find the number of photons

       # = E_{total} / E

       # = 70 / 3,315 10⁻¹⁹

       # = 21,116 10¹⁹ photons

b) The definition of intensity is

       I = P / A

       P = I A

We want an intensity  

        I = 1 photon / cm²

The area of ​​a sphere is

        A = 4π r²

        P = I 4π R²

        R = √ P / 4π I

The power is equal to the number of photons per energy of each photon emitted per unit of time

      R = √ (# E_{total} / 4π I)

Intensity is

      I = 1 photon / cm² (100 cm / 1m) 2 = 1 10⁴ photon / m²

     R = √ (21,116 10¹⁹ / 4π 10⁴)

     R = √ (16.80 10¹⁴)

     R = 4,099 10⁷ m

c) we calculate the intensity

      A = 4π R²

      A = 4π 1.9²

      A = 45.36 m²

       I = P / A

       I = 21,116 10¹⁹ / 45.36

       I = 4.66 10¹⁸ photons / m²

The key to making a concise mathematical definition of escape velocity is to consider the energy. If an object is launched at it
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

The total Mechanical energy will be zero

Explanation: Escape velocity is the velocity required by a free object in order to overcome the impact of the force of gravity. The total mechanical energy of an object is the total energy possessed by an object which includes its kinectic and potential energy.

since the object is moving at an escape velocity which is 11.2m/s the object will be assumed to be weightless

Etotal = kinetic energy + potential energy

kinetic energy= 1/2*M*V*V

Potential energy=MGH

Etotal=1/2*0*11.2*11.2+0*0*0

Etotal=0+0

Etotal=0.

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:D) His Facial expressions when they spend time together

 

Explanation:

Eva's should carefully observe the normal verbal signs by her lover because facial expression gives the hint to listener or viewer that one is interested towards other.

Some common facial Expression are

  • Smiling Eyes:While smiling is, of course, an important expression when we speak, attempting to keep a constant  smile could make you look more like a trained sociopath than a happy, enthusiastic presenter. These enables other person to feel the good vibes out of you and left a positive impact of your presence.
  • Nod on: It is important to express interest in the feedback of your audience. No one likes an identity-centered snob. One way to show that you're actually engaged in the comments and questions they pose is by nodding while you're listening. Moving your head a little wider will help to express your attention as well.

An astronaut working with many tools some distance away from a spacecraft is stranded when the "maneuvering unit" malfunctions.
N76 [4]

Answer:

He can return to the spacecraft by sacrificing some of the tools employing the principle of conservation of momentum.

Explanation:

By carefully evaluating his direction back to the ship, the astronaut can throw some of his tools in the opposite direction to that. On throwing those tools of a certain mass, they travel at a certain velocity giving him velocity in the form of recoil in the opposite direction of the velocity of the tools. This is same as a gun and bullet recoil momentum conservation. It is also the principle on which the operational principles of their maneuvering unit is designed.
